Based on the markdowns and the number of each of the plants purchased, the amount saved is <u>$9.06</u>

Potted Begonias cost $6.57 when discounted by 27%. Their cost must be:

<em>Discounted cost = Original cost x (1 - Discount)</em>

6.57 = Original x (1 - 27%)

Original = 6.57 / 0.73

Original = $9.00

The savings here are therefore:

= 2 x (9 - 6.57)

= $4.86

The original cost of the Tomato seedlings is:

= 2.60 / ( 1 - 35%)

= $4.00

Savings would be:

= 3 x (4 - 2.60)

= $4.20

Total savings are therefore:

= 4.86 + 4.20

= $9.06

In conclusion, $9.06 was saved.

What is a geometric sequence and arithmetic sequence?<br><br> ~MUST EXPLAIN~
Vadim26 [7]
A geometric sequence is one that involves addition or subtraction. One example would be "In an auditorium, the 1st row has 25 seats. The 2nd has 30. The 3rd has 35. How many does the 4th have? Take the formula, x + 5. All you do is simply add 5. 

An arithmetic sequence is one that involves multiplication or division. For example, "Jon receives 5 dollars each week. If he waits for 5 months, how much money will he have? Honestly, all you have to do is think about the formula. x * 5. x would be the number of weeks. 

I know my answer is not as good as the verified one, but it is simpler and easier to understand. I apologize if it isn't good enough.
